Howie58 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Greetings: We are the underdog: https://www.docsports.com/free-picks/nhl-hockey/2018/Philadelphia-Flyers-at-Edmonton-Oilers-NHL-Picks-Predictions-12-14-2018-738.html But that may not matter much given how we play and our poor performance over the last five games. It looks like Lyon and Stolarz will be our duo in goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brelic Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I hate this coach's lineup choices. Actually, scratch that. I just hate this coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Just looking at Patrick's game log. 2 points in his first 8 games. 6 points in 4 games (West coast trip) 2 points in the last 14 games. Lindblom - 2 points in hist first 11 games. 7 points in 5 games (West coast trip) 2 points in his last 13 games. Isn't right around the end of the first West Coast trip that Hak split up Lindblom and Patrick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR Ewing Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Good opportunity for the Flyers tonight. Due to injury, the Oilers defense is Darnell Nurse, Adam Larsson, 3 cardboard cut-outs in the shape of NHL players, and Stretch Armstrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be the brakes off you....till 2 minutes are left and then you will score the tying goal followed by the winning goal to take both points.

Howie58 Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 Under different circumstances, Stolarz/Lyon as duo might have made sense. Maybe if they had more experience...or if the team around them was playing well. Right now...a sad commentary on management, team, coaching....

Well the only way for them to get more experience is to pla them. Looks like their opportunity is now. Elliott being sent back for a doctor appointment was his reason but still a strange and not encouraging reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JR Ewing Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 Caleb Jones (Seth's younger brother) makes his NHL debut tonight. His AHL coaches say that he's really to defend, but there's one big thing that brings him to the league. Speed. You can’t teach it, it doesn’t go into slumps and it is useful on offense and defense. Jones has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howie58 Posted December 15, 2018 Author Share Posted December 15, 2018 A four minute PP and we look so passive. Other than Giroux, who has real creativity on this squad? Stolarz just stopped a potential shortie. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
